Stock Mazda Fuel & Ignition Maps
Yeah over my head too, I generally submerge myself with the information until I understand it. But I would just drown, trying to understand all this. Explain it in simple terms lol JUST KIDDING

yeah back in college we used the motorola hc11 chip lol brings back memorys haha
I don't think he was implying absolute values but rather relative. some areas of L/T maps look the same i.e. zero split; other areas have up to 4 x's magnitude difference.so maybe 4 x 3.5 degs == 14 deg total split

you're right - the entire trailing map (in vacuum) is of the same value... it fades from -4* degree to -14.8*
in fact, 5K Revs column is 0* trailing until atmospheric pressure which is then -4.9*, -9.5* then 14.8*
it continues like that all over the map.
Only way to prove numbers in the real world would be to use a Mazda tester/monitor tool. Also, the service highlights manual indicates that timing can vary up to 7 degrees based on knock sensor feedback alone.

for reference, here are the early model PFC timing maps (current PFC default maps are different). Supposedly these are close to stock.


here is the final injector pulsewidth map (hidden basemap * Commander INJ map correction) for that same model PFC. this does not include air temp etc corrections

10000 PIM units = atmospheric pressure
20000 PIM units = 1.0 kg/cm^2 boost or 14.22 psi
-- leading timing is in degrees BTDC
-- trailing timing is the number of degrees of separation between firing of the trailing and leading plugs
-- fuel map is in milliseconds of injector pulsewidth

the cosmo new model training book has the timing map in it, clearly split is small at low load, and big at high load.
the rx8 can be plugged into the dealership computer, it also runs more split @wot than it does at say half throttle.
i do not specifically know about the FD of course...

Of course there is more information... OMP, correction tables, etc..
There are a few people here who I've shared that information with but for something more specific you could always log the FD and build your own map for these or run the ECU on a workbench.
I didn't have any help extracting this information and dont feel the need to release it. Sorry.

(not that i understand it all, but i do understand enough to know that its pimp ish lol)
